Please tell me how to control this 78%. Well, this is showing how much of /var you are using. One way of dealing with it which we have talked about recently is to symlink /var to a different directory. For example, on my machine, i do not have a separate /var directory. But if i did, it would be under /usr/var. Search the mailing list for /usr/var and you will see the command to copy the /var directory to a different one and symlink to it. > >Regards, >bunny@super.net.pk > > -jonathon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
